Chapter 1865: Caught by Me
Mr. Ball asked, "What did the previous warehouse mean?"
Vicki replied, "I never expected Seren to lie low for so long. In fact, his stronghold has always been
close to the Saunders family. It's only a five-minute drive away. Concealed in plain sight, that's the
idea."
Mr. Ball widened his eyes in surprise and said, "So he's been right under our noses all this time. Even if
he had plastic surgery, we shouldn't have been completely oblivious."
"That's his cleverness. That's why I said he must have a backup plan. He wouldn't have settled for
something so simple," Vicki raised her eyebrows confidently, like a soaring sword. "Escaping has a
golden time frame, and no matter what, we must catch him today. Otherwise, if he goes into hiding
again, it could be another ten or eight years."
"Oh my, I don't want to live in constant fear," Mr. Ball couldn't help but complain.
"I've already made a call. All land, sea, and air routes leaving Khebury have been sealed off. Seren
won't be able to escape. I've also put his picture on a nationwide wanted list," Luther said at that
moment.
After he finished speaking, the radio communicator on his body finally rang.
Luther quickly pressed the answer button. "Joyce, are you okay?" They were worried about drawing
attention, so they had never used the radio to communicate before. Any little movement would arouse
Seren's suspicion.
And now, the most dangerous alert had been lifted. Obviously, Joyce contacted him on her own
initiative.
"Okay. How is the situation on your end?" Joyce asked.
"The good news is we have gained control of the situation, but the bad news is we can't find Seren for
the time being," Luther truthfully replied. "You can come down from the spire, be careful and watch your
step. Then you and Darrin should go back first. The search here will be more difficult, leave it to us."
"Alright," Joyce did not object and agreed.
"I'll hang up now, but keep in touch. Also, command the warlord's side and help block all offshore
channels. You can also contact Karl and have him grant us privileged access to all surveillance
cameras, so we can monitor Seren's movements at any time. We can't let him leave Khebury," Luther
instructed.
"Don't worry, leave it to me." Joyce agreed. "You also take care of yourself. How's your condition? I'm
still a bit worried about you. After all, the poison in your body hasn't been completely eliminated."
"I'm fine," Luther reassured her. "If there's any situation, I'll contact you immediately."
"Okay, hang up." After Joyce finished speaking, she hung up the radio communication on her own
initiative.
Mr. Ball arranged his subordinates and left Nishant and others to clear the area, as well as some
remaining men in black who had to be completely controlled.
The group began searching in the direction of the Saunders family's back mountain because it was
unlikely that anyone would leave through the main entrance.
The so-called back mountain was actually just a small hill, but despite its small size, the terrain was
quite complex. There was an electric fence separating it, and the people of the Saunders family rarely
went to the back mountain.
Felix and Vicki walked towards the back mountain.
A short while later, the person who had been scouting ahead returned and reported, "Mr. Saunders, Mr.
Ball, the electric fence at the back mountain has been deliberately cut off. Judging from the cut, it has This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
been severed for some time, at least two or three days."
Vicki coldly said, "As expected, Seren was prepared long ago. During this time when I wasn't at home,
someone cut off the electric fence. Didn't you notice? How do you manage the affairs of the Saunders
family?"
Felix's handsome face revealed a hint of embarrassment. During Vicki's time being held by Cloud, how
could he have had the mind to manage the internal affairs of the Saunders family? His heart was
entirely focused on her.
"Forget it, I don't want to talk to you," Vicki sighed, pointing at Felix. "You go ahead, I'll follow behind
you."
Felix quickly agreed, "Alright." As a man, it was his duty to be at the forefront during dangerous times,
and he was more than willing to walk in front of Vicki. However, it felt a bit strange because it didn't
quite match Vicki's usual style.
Luther and Mr. Ball were not far from them, each leading a group of people, planning to split up.
Mr. Ball shouted to Felix, "Mr. Saunders, should we change our teams? I'll go with my sister-in-law, and
you can go with Mr. Warner?"
Felix declined, "No need, I'll stay with her. Let's split up here and contact each other immediately if
anything happens."
"Alright." Mr. Warner left with Mr. Ball from the southern end of the electric fence.
Meanwhile, Felix led Vicki and a considerable number of people to enter the back mountain from the
northern end of the electric fence. They were well-equipped.
As Felix walked ahead, he occasionally looked back. "Vicki, have you not eaten properly for several
days? Do you have enough energy? I mean, we have so many people. Maybe you should go back and
rest."
Vicki replied calmly, "I'm not hungry."
Felix took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket. "Here, have this. It'll give you some energy. Even if
you're not hungry, I'm worried about our son being hungry."
"How do you know it's definitely a boy?" Vicki sighed.
"Either way, I love them both. As long as they're the ones you give birth to," Felix joked, pretending to
be relaxed. In reality, he felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. He could already feel blood seeping from the
bound area, sticky liquid flowing towards his chest.
Vicki stared at Felix's expression, squinting her eyes. She had long sensed that something was wrong.
Felix didn't need to hide it, it was impossible to deceive her.
"Enough talk, focus on leading the way. Watch your step and see if there are any traces left by the
other side."
Vicki glared at Felix fiercely.
Felix felt a bit embarrassed. "Got it, my lady."
Felix continued walking ahead, but suddenly he felt an unusual silence behind him, making him
suspicious and cautious.
Suddenly, he turned around.
Sure enough, he saw Vicki not far behind him, raising her hand as if she wanted to strike him forcefully
from behind his neck.
If she landed such a blow, he would surely lose consciousness on the spot.
Felix turned his head and stared directly at Vicki. His usually gentle face instantly turned cold.
"What do you mean, Vicki? Do you want to knock me out? I knew you had other plans. I've caught you
red-handed," he said.
He knew something was off. Why would Vicki willingly let him walk in front when she was the type of
woman who always liked to be at the forefront of everything? There had to be a motive behind her
actions, and he had just caught her in the act.
Vicki was caught red-handed, and she admitted it without hesitation. "Yes, you're right. I wanted to
knock you out, Felix. Do you realize that you're bleeding? It's dangerous to stay here. I just bandaged it
briefly and don't know the extent of your injury. Right now, you need medical attention, not to stare at
me here. What if your vein tears..."
